SCENARIO In "Get a Life" you embody Alexander Zemlinsky, a subway technician suffering from leukaemia. Alex is not, unlike the protagonists in most games, an invincible super-soldier. But you wouldn't call him normal either, because there is something in his past that connects him with the events that are about to happen in the course of the story (we want to keep the suspense, so nothing more on that...). FEATURES * GaL will run on the latest version of the Source Engine, so that means you'll see HDR and the enhanced shadow system (as seen in HL2: Episode 1) in "Get a Life" as well * To give the player the best gaming experience possible, GaL will offer a custom HUD, an innovative healing system with several damage zones, drugs that will trigger a "bullet-time" effect, upgradeable weapons and enhanced enemy AI * About 11 hours of gameplay * 24 maps with varied environments * 61 characters * 13 weapons

A wonderful total conversion very ambitious and one of the most incredible final boss fights ever seen in a mod, on par with Sweet HL Kingpin.
Very long, many RPG elements, unique enemies and textures, it is a "must play" of mods.

One of the best mods I've ever played for Half Life 2. The story, though a little confusing at first, is seamlessly incorporated with the healthy balance of exploration, combat, and puzzle solving. Combined with custom skins, textures, sound and kick *** weapons will guarantee a rich and enjoyable experience.
As for the quality versus quantity factor, prepare to be immersed in a rich and detailed 6 to 9 hour game. The limb health feature on some occasion was a bit intrusive during hefty combat sequences but adds more purpose and meaning than just walking over a health kit and gaining 25 health. It was a bit tough and challenging in some areas and I did get lost a few times, but these occurrences were few and far between.
I highly recommend this mod to anyone, it will certainly make a nice addition to your collection.

Awsome mod. Confusing and didnt make sense in certain parts. But it was one of the best mods I've played. Also I hate spiders.

who paid the ultimate sacrifice
for the liberation of the Marianas.

Comment on this storyPrague – Usain Bolt will compete again at the Golden Spike in Ostrava on June 17.

Bolt says "Ostrava is a fast track when the weather is good. I look forward to good weather and good performances in 2014."
The six-time Olympic champion will race for the seventh time at the meet, which is part of the IAAF World Challenge series. – Sapa-AP

Miami , Florida
Tel: 305 375 3000
Concierge.com's insider take:
Located downtown in the Miami-Dade Cultural Center, this museum showcases the diverse international makeup of the community in its display of Miami-based artists and art of the Western Hemisphere in general. Founded in 1996, it's not yet a major institution, but it has been gradually expanding its collection and raising its profile; Terence Riley, formerly of New York's Museum of Modern Art, is the director, and architects Herzog & de Meuron are creating a new space downtown next to Biscayne Bay (due in 2012).
Open Tuesdays through Fridays 10 am to 5 pm, Saturdays noon to 5 pm.

Any info on this topic is pretty hard to find. At least for me. BM Advance is a water based alkyd and so it has been said that it may/could/does yellow. especially using white. I'm thinking of using this paint (white) on my Kitch cabs as it seems to level the best. However I'm concerned about touch ups and a difference in color over time. Funny thing (to me) is, BM has a sort of tutorial on their site for repainting kitch cabs and they use white advance. Maybe they don't know it yellows. Or, is this whole "yellowing" thing so negligent that it doesn't matter? Is it like a 30 year thing or a 5 year thing? Has anyone had experience with this "yellowing" of Advance? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I have read it yellows and does not take long. Months? Sorry no link but some reading on pro sites should surface it. I believe I was told by BM that Fine Paints of Europe water based alkyd does not yellow. |

Kooops: The doors in the pictures weren't sprayed? |
That looks great Kooooops . I tried CC but didn't like the coverage or the sheen (too glossy). Actually, I was thinking my can was a return that somene filled up with water. It was pretty thin. But, now that I think about it, the water would have dulled the sheen….hmm.. It did flow out quite well, better than Advance. Did BM tint the CC for you? I've also tried water based Impervo. went on like pancake batter. Also tried Target 6500 (sprayed). They can't get the coloring of BM simply white correct though. I posted in Paint also.. Thanks snookums. I've got a door painted with advance. Probably been like 2 months. Still looks good. Yea, my brain is died from goooogling… |

Trebruchet No, those are brushed and foam roller. I was shocked at the end finish. We have sprayed many things in the history of our DIY ventures with an HVLP gun. Unfortunately we don't have the space or set up to spray in this house so I planned to do it by hand. My husband knows I am generally a skilled painter/perfectionist but was not thrilled at the idea of me brush painting. Then he saw the finished product and couldn't believe it! I mostly credit the paint, CC is amazing stuff! tbo123 I found it only slightly shinier than Advance. I did have to do 3 coats and I sanded lightly in between. I think the photo is after 2 coats. The coats went on quickly though. I used BM Fresh Start primer. Yes, BM tinted the CC for me. At first the guy made a mistake and tinted it wrong. But when I went back and they fixed it, the Advance LInen white and the CC Linen white were exactly the same to my naked eye. I painted those last fall and they have held up perfectly to date- however it's in a minimally used bathroom which obviously can't compare to a kitchen. |

This is from the Fine Paints of Europe frequently asked questions page: "Q: White enamels always yellow in my kitchen. Why does this happen and how can I prevent it in the future? A: White alkyd paints, even great alkyd paints such as Hollandlac and Eco, will yellow in the absence of abundant ultraviolet light. Dark rooms create an environment in which yellowing occurs quite rapidly. This is especially troublesome in rooms such as kitchens and bathrooms, in which a yellowed painted finish presents an unacceptable contrast to white enamel appliances. The only alternative is to utilize Eurolux Acrylic, which is non-yellowing under all circumstances. Eurolux White will provide an ideal solution to your yellowing problem." So maybe the FPoE Eurolux Acrylic would work for you if you definitely want a white paint that will stay white. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Fine Paints of Europe FAQs
Thanks for the responses. penitent. That Q and A seems a little confusing in that the question refers to enamels and the answer refers to alkyds. There are latex enamels and now latex alkyds hence my confusion in general. I think I would prefer an acrylic but they are just so user unfriendly. Never heard of Fine Paints of Europe and there are no dealers nearby. I'm going to experiment with CC tomorrow. Maybe I can topcoat it with a satin poly. It is a urethane paint after all. |
BM here sells FPE. It's a pricey high end paint and finish. |
I absolutely swear by Cabinet Coat. If you use that, and its sister adhesive primer, STIX, it goes on like buttah. Sooo smooth. Cabinet Coat can only be had in very light colors. It was initially made for trim. I've had different things tinted for Cabinet Coat, and it's fabulous. After doing my kitchen cabinets with it, I'll never use anything else. I was worried when BM bought them from Inslx, but so far, so good. |
- Posted by Fluffeebiskits1 (My Page) on Mon, Mar 10, 14 at 10:52
Wow Kooops!!! That's impressive! I need to repaint my kitchen cabinets and dont want to reuse the SW Proclassic. It does go on smooth, but your primer coat has to be glass smooth first, and its a little hard to work with. Also, my cabinets are birch slab ( can you say 60s), and the lack of grain and trim makes imperfections more noticeable. What type of roller did you use, and did you brush the frames/stiles and roll the panel? |
Fluffeebiskits1 Thanks! I used high density foam rollers, both a 2" and a 4". I also used a high quality 2" angle brush. I think it was 2". For my doors I brushed the edges and the inset of the raised panel piece and then immediately rolled the stiles, rails and flat raised panel section to blend them in. I also rolled around the outside edges a bit, but was very careful to not cause build up or drips to the underside. In other words, don't use too much paint or put too much pressure on your roller. I wish I had pictures of what it looked like at that point. It's scary- it did not look good. But don't overdo it and just walk away. I came back and it had leveled out very nicely. Of course the doors were able to lay flat, improving its ability to level. The vanity frame that I painted does show more brush strokes although I tried to use the foam roller as much as possible there as well. Upon very close inspection you cannot see any brush strokes and very little roller stippling on the doors. I did lightly sand with super super fine sand paper in between each coat. Overall it was not that time consuming, although I only did 2 doors. But the anxiety over wanting it to look as perfect as possible slows me down as I tend to overthink things. I have had all of my cabinets labeled for months and thought through the logistics of the job but still have yet to move forward. Now we're having an addition put on and I don't want to paint around dust! |
We are planning to use BM Advance. The clerk at BM said it wouldn't yellow. We painted a table with it a few weeks ago, and it turned out beautifully! No brush strokes, hard and scrubbable finish. It's too soon to see if it will yellow. They don't sell Cabinet Coat at our BM stores |

Behind the verdant palm fronds painted onto Tropical Island Tan's front windows, three levels of UV beds and trained tanning technicians stand ready to impart skin with a summery hue. The staff loads up airbrushes with an aloe-based Swoosh Sunless tanning solution, then coats bodies in two layers of the spray to ensure full, long-lasting coverage in the face of swimming, showering, or napping in a fountain. Outside the private-tanning rooms, the staff displays Designer Skin, OC, and body butter products and helps tanners select the best regimen for their skin type and desired bronzing level.

On 10 a.m. on the first day of 2013, City Park's Great Lawn will fill with people ready to start the year off not with a resolution, but a commitment—a commitment to a healthy lifestyle. They'll run, walk, or jay-walk through the park and Marconi Drive on the flat, fast course, which it circles back to the Great Lawn where they started. After the race, runners can stick around for a post-race party to celebrate a successful first morning of the New Year.
In more than 30 cities across the nation, other runners will be participating in similar events as part of a movement that aims to stymie the rising rates of obesity and inaction in the United States.

A portion of the ticket sales benefits the Pike Place Market Foundation, which supports low-income and senior residents.

Andersen out, Evans in for Rovers
Mikkel Andersen is away on international duty with the Denmark Under-21 squad so Evans will be back in goal on Tuesday night. Manager Paul Trollope must decide whether to make any more changes or stick with the same outfield line-up that beat Colchester. "That's the dilemma but it's good to have those choices," he said. "I have options if I need to freshen it up a bit. There are a lot of games coming up and everyone will be needed." Defenders Aaron Lescott and Carl Regan, midfielder Mark Wright and striker Andy Williams are among those players who will be hoping to get a recall. Trollope added: "They have been on the bench recently after being regular starters for us this season and playing a lot of games. They are disappointed and frustrated at that but, like I say, there are a lot of games coming up and everyone will be needed."

I believe Rosegarden does have a bunch of keyboard short-cuts in theHi Angel,
I hope I understand correctly what you are trying to achieve.
On 14/01/13 00:05, Angel de Vicente wrote:
- Note entry through (QWERTY) keyboard. You may have noticed that
keyboard rows are mapped to DO-RE-MI pitches in notation editor: e.g.
a-s-d-f-j-k-l corresponsds to DO-RE-MI-FA-SOL-LA-SI
It takes a while to get used to it but can speed note entry quite a bit
- UP/DOWN arrows change pitch of selected notes up/down
- CTRL + UP/DOWN: change pitch of selected notes an octave up/down
- Note dureations: numbers (hint if you hover your mouse on a duration
in the palette you can see the corresponding keyboard shortcut in
parenthesis) e.g. 1/4 = 4, 1/8 = 8 etc.
- CTRL + corresponding number, will convert all durations of selected
notes to the corresponding duration. Note that this will leave start
times as they are, which may or may not be what you want depending on
the situation
- CTRL + H and CTRL + SHIFT + H: rescale duration to halve/double: this
will also *move* notes, which you may or may not want (different factors
than double and half can be accesed from Adjust->scale menu)
- SHIFT + (left/right) Arrows select notes
- ESCAPE: unselect all notes
- left/right arrows, move cursor through notes
- CTRL + left/right, move cursor one measure at a time
- ALT + left/right arrow: move slected notes a 32snd earlier/later
> 3. The same idea, but for velocities, so I could easily create piano,
Hope this helps.

The sweeping staircase is the first thing you notice when you walk into this historic beautifully renovated townhouse. Elegant, old fashioned décor including stained glass windows and real fireplaces make a stay here the quintessential English experience. But don't be fooled by the quiet, the bustle of the city is just outside the door. Located in Kensington, attraction such as Victoria and Albert Museum and Kensington Palace are close by. Alternatively Gloucester Road underground station is just opposite allowing for easy access to the West End Theatres and other central London attractions.

Anyway, thought she should meet you and you should meet her. :)
Cheers, Shane (& Alex)
Now you can see how your dad spends all day playing with computers! ;)
Do you think Shane is bizzare? Shane is not alone, I also live in Canada, love computers, fireworks and of course WebmasterWorld!
Alex, please tell us more about Shane. ;)
from Vancouver myself, no kids though so I guess that may be why I've never heard of job shadow day.
(Yes, I still have control over the keyboard! I did offer she could write the reply but she said that she was not to chat with strangers over the internet!?) Oh well, taught well I guess.
Cheers, Shane
And we are a strange bunch! :)
What's 'job shadow day'? We sure don't have that in Denmark...
Nick_W... if it's like the ones we have here.. it's where a kid goes along to work with your parent so you can either be inspired to work harder so you can get the same cool job they have.... or scared out of your wits to work harder so you never end up in the same crummy job they have.
I got scared straight ;)
Nick, it is where a teenager follows you around for a day trying to figure out what you do and if they want to do it as well (or some other job they see someone down the hall doing).
My cube mate is now saying Alex should get the true benefit of the experience and do his work.....
Chow for now, Shane (&Alex :)
Well, I liked having her around.
Cheers All, Shane

One enters directly into an open space that includes the fireplace sitting area, the television sitting area, the dining area, and the kitchen. The bedroom and bathroom are in the back of the space. The cottage is very well appointed. Nothing has been overlooked. Breakfast items (yogurt, eggs, butter, OJ, milk, fruit) are in the refrigerator and on the counter (bread, coffee, tea). Beer and soft drinks were also provided. Highly recommended.

My husband and I have never stayed at a bed & breakfast and I'm afraid the Mulberry House has spoiled us! The cottage had everything we needed and so much more. The grounds and gazebo were so lovely, we had our intimate wedding under the gazebo. Catherine and Doug went above and beyond in every way to ensure we had the perfect weekend and wedding. We simply couldn't have wished for better. The Mulberry House will always be special to us. I highly recommend it to everyone!

My husband and I shared a very special weekend at the Mulberry House. Catherine and Doug go way above and beyond in every way and the house is simply perfect. I highly recommend this lovely getaway!

My husband had to go to Nashville on business for a few days and he found this cottage and what a find it was. It was in a great location which was very convenient to downtown. The decor was stylish and very comfortable. It was immaculately clean and neat. Catherine was so helpful with restaurants and places to go. It felt more like visiting a friend. The cottage was very private and we will definitely try to stay there again on our next visit.

My wife and I returned to Nashville for 3 nights in October, 2012 for an event at Vanderbilt Medical Center and to see old friends. We opted to stay at the Mulberry House after a careful search of local hotels, inns and B&B's, and we were not disapppointed in the least. In fact, this was one of the best stays we have had in our frequent travels. No detail has been spared in the renovation of this former carriage house, including in the decorations and the amenities offered. We were allowed privacy but the owners were easily accessible for answering questions or just a quick visit. The proximity to downtown Nashville, the Vanderbilt area and Green Hills is hard to beat. But the spacious accommodations and attention to detail in the cottage are what stand out and make this a wonderful destination spot for those looking for a short or long term stay in Nashville.

We recently spent three nights in the Cottage. Everything was beyond our expectations. Catherine treated us as house guests, rather than strangers. It was so special that we have gifted two nights to our daughter and future son-in-law for their wedding night in mid-September. In this world of commercial enterprise, it is rare to find a one of a kind anything. This experience was in that category. Jan and Jim Borin

Our office was recently treated to a lovely time at Mulberry House. Our team of eleven used the living room for a day-long planning meeting. The atmosphere was peaceful and so conducive to creative discussion and quiet time for reflection. Cathy and Doug were such gracious hosts. A tranquil retreat, without having to leave the convenience of the city. We'll be back!

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay at this charming, adorable getaway. Mulberry House is a detached completely refurbished cottage with every amenity you'd look for in a cozy B&B, with the added bonus of a bit of privacy! Doug was a perfect host, and met us on arrival to give us a guided tour of the cottage and surroundings. We soon made ourselves so comfortable that we didn't want to leave. The cottage is roomy and spacious. The full kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to make our own breakfasts, including fresh ground coffee, yogurt, fruit and home made granola. The private fully fenced-in courtyard is an idyllic retreat running over with southern charm. And we loved the privacy - we could have lounged quietly alone the entire weekend. We will surely return and next time we'll spend more time!

Catherine and Doug offer the best in Southern hospitality with great attention to detail with the amenities. This was my 3rd visit to the lovely carriage house and I look forward to returning. It was my home away from home as my son matriculated through Vanderbilt University. May they continue to provide comfort to all who visit! Lisa Roth

We went to Nashville to see our son who is a student at Belmont. We were very stressed as we are selling our house, and our kitchen had flooded. When we arrived at Mulberry House, it was as if every stress and burden were lifted from our shoulders. It was so peaceful and beautiful. Very clean, which is important to us. Catherine and Doug were so gracious and hospitable, meeting us as we drove up. Catherine had included everything we would need, and even stocked snacks in case our son wanted to stay with us. Her homemade granola makes my mouth water even thinking about it! This is an expensive place to stay, but for a special occasion, it truly makes your visit above and beyond your normal weekend getaway. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting a quiet, peaceful place to stay in Nashville. Not to mention in a very easy location to get most anywhere. I hope we can go back soon!

Hi Paul,
Let me shed some light from the opposite side.
I was one of the developers of the "existing codebase" [1]. Actually,
I joined the project formally about 3 months ago and I believe I made
a significant contribution in porting it to Qt4. The way I joined to
the project was traditional: sent a couple useful patches so that
people can get to know me, and after a couple rounds I got commit
rights. From my experience with open source projects, this is the way
things evolve. (I sent patches to ardour too in the past, you folks
have been friendly all the time. I am pretty sure same thing would
have happened if I contributed more frequently.)
OOM folks took a different approach. Originally, we granted them an
SVN branch and we were working under the same umbrella. They put
really hard work in their branch, and I admired most of what they did.
The plan was to merge their new features into the trunk. So we asked
for patches for individual features. This never came from them.
Instead they wanted us to grab everything (or a subset) as is. Our
team did not have the resources to take the diff of each individual
file to filter out each separate feature, and we simply didn't want to
accept *everything* as is. Thus, we proposed them to fork. This is
purely due to differences in the workflow and creativity.
That said, I believe the original codebase deserved a little more
credit than what is there in the bottom corner of the AUTHORS file.
Moreover, when they forked off, they _kindly_ asked us to not backport
some of the changes they made (mostly appearance related). While I do
not have any intention of using their look, I found this a little odd.
You are borrowing tens of thousands of lines of code from a project,
don't give them credit in your project webpage, and tell them not to
use your little contribution in their original codebase. There is
something morally wrong here.
Anyhow, I wish them good luck with their project.

But I do not know how to add a photo! I have posted several photos on Flickr but do not know how to refer you to them. (Can anyone explain how? I have listed them as "public.")
In the meantime, I'll try to describe them: there are a number of these plants growing actually in or very close to the edge, in the mud--never farther than a foot from the water's edge--of a pool in a woodland in central Ohio. Each plant has 2 leaf stalks coming from the base, and the 2 leaf-stalks are different from each other. One is a compound leaf about 10-15" tall with 8 sets of finely serrated opposite leaflets; the second leaf is somewhat shorter and most closely resembles a long, single finely cut leaf of Queen Ann's lace, or a stalk of dill--totally unlike the other leaf! Also on some plants, the leaflets of the compound leaf are much more deeply serrated, almost lobed.
Can anyone suggest possibilities as to name or even family? I have tried Googling "bog plant Ohio" and searched the CT Botanical Society's website (often very helpful) as well as "Cedar Bog Ohio" looking for possibilities, but see nothing like this plant. I am stymied. Thanks in advance for any help! CK |

Just a shot in the dark, but maybe Sium suave, or tall water parsnip I haven't used Flickr but maybe you can copy and paste the url for the page where you can see the images from your browser to here. |
Hmmm..that is the closest so far to what I found--but I still am not seeing that second type of leaf. Here are links to my Flickr page (did not think about it being that easy!) The third shoot now has developed further in the plant I have at home (and have in my hand in this photo) and is going to be another leaf like the one seen on the left: http://www.flickr.com/photos/hortophile/4576637955/ Here are a few more views of the plant in situ: This 3rd photo shows another plant with a slightly different type of leaf in combination with the leaf that looks like carrot: http://www.flickr.com/photos/hortophile/4576637233/ Hope lycopus sees this and that these photos are more conclusive! CK |
Well that was a lucky guess. Pretty sure that it is Sium suave after looking at the images. However, given the similarity of this species to water hemlock I have to say that I am not absolutely sure. |
Lycopus--I did a bit more research and the drawing/description at the USDA PLants Database nails it--and confirms your ID! Found it on page 222 in my Newcomb's guide. Many thanks! CK |
Here is a link that might be useful: USDA Plants Database

i am not sure but i thinks its Sium suave according to my knowlege and if its not a sium suava then you should check it properly and then try to identify the thing. I if you find some thing new then you must tell us about that. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Iphone 4 Bumper cases
Pettersmith, thanks for your input, but if you will read agian my last message dated May 7, you will see that I did, indeed, make a positive ID of the plant. It grew happily in a large pot that I kept soggy all summer but now has died back from several hard frosts. It was fun having it here! Be interesting to see if it sprouts anew in the pot, come spring. |

I bought 100 bulbs of a nondescript "Yellow Darwin Hybrid" tulip at a hardware store clearance sale and planted them. They were cheap even before they had gone on clearance.
I had read that "Golden Apeldoorn" and the Apeldoorns in general are among the best perennializers within the Darwin tulip class, and assumed that's what these were until I read the label and realize it was not specific. I'm still thinking it's an Apeldoorn because those are the cheapest Darwin tulips in any catalog, so if a hardware store is going to be selling large packages of nondescript tulips at low cost, it will probably be the cheapest variety to produce (and Apeldoorns are probably so cheap because they're an established variety that is eager to multiply in ideal conditions). But I'd like to have some sense of how well these will perennialize so I can plant around them before waiting 3 years to see if they stop coming. I suppose it could also be "Golden Parade," and those are also very cheap in catalogs, though I can't figure out why a producer would come up with multiple varieties of tulips that are virtually identical. Perhaps could also be a mix of different kinds of similar-looking yellow Darwin tulips and they could't in good conscience market them as one or the other? Does anybody have any insight? |

All of your conjectures are very possible, but I seriously doubt there will be any way to know for sure until they come up and bloom in the spring. Even then, be prepared to post pictures and hope for a real expert to see them. |

Sightseeing (Picture BC photo)
Thompson Okanagan sightseeing tours offer something for history buffs, photographers, foodies and those who just want to relax.
Step back in time on a 1912 steam locomotive tour in Summerland and enjoy sightseeing from an open-air rail car. Take a flightseeing tour for a panoramic view of farms, orchards, vineyards and lakes, or enjoy sightseeing on a paddlewheeler boat cruise. The Thompson Okanagan has more than a dozen driving routes (many are day tours), which are ideal for self-guided sightseeing tours.
Walking tours allow for leisurely exploration and centre on arts and culture. Stroll through downtown Vernon to see 26 murals or wander through Kelowna's culturally-rich downtown core.
Read More
Hop on the "3716," a restored 1912 steam locomotive train with open-air and covered cars, for a 90-minute journey to the past. Chat with costumed interpreters and listen to musicians as the train chugs through rural Summerland with views of mountains, orchards and vineyards. The train makes a stop on the 73-m/240-ft Trout Creek Bridge, which provides a perfect photo opportunity of Trout Creek Canyon and Okanagan Lake.
In Kamloops, ride the "Spirit of Kamloops" steam train to learn about the age of steam. As part of the train tour, cross the South Thompson River on a steel trestle bridge and watch masked cowboys on horseback stage a re-creation of the famous Bill Miner train robbery.
Air enthusiasts in Kelowna can choose between floatplanes or helicopters that offer unparalleled views of orchards, vineyards, trestles, alpine meadows and mountains. Some operators offer longer flights for a spectacular view of Kalamalka Lake near Vernon.
Take a helicopter out of Kamloops to see more than 300 lakes, hoodoos (unique rock formations) and mountain ridges. Early evening flights as the sun sets on Kamloops Lake are very popular.
Want a bird's eye view of Mount Robson, the highest peak (3,954m/12,972ft) in the Canadian Rockies? Head to Valemount for a flightseeing tour that includes Berg Glacier and Valley of a Thousand Falls.
Find additional flightseeing adventures in Salmon Arm, Vernon, Clearwater and Chase.
On a boat tour around Lake Okanagan, relax and learn the region's history while passing sights such as S.S. Sicamous (the largest remaining steel-hulled sternwheeler in Canada), sandy beaches and waterfront communities. Options range from paddlewheelers to motor boats; some cruises allow for a swimming break... but watch out for Ogopogo (a mythical creature said to reside here)!
These scenic tours are just some of the many options for cruising in the Thompson Okanagan.
Self-guided sightseeing walking tours are available in many communities, and maps can be picked up at Visitor Centres.
Visit downtown Vernon to view 26 murals painted by at-risk youth as part of a community life skills program. These outdoor works of art illustrate the culture and history of the town; see them as part of a guided or self-guided tour.
In Kelowna, take a self-guided walking tour through Cultural District to learn about the city's history and to visit attractions. The tour begins with a stroll along Okanagan Lake before passing the Okanagan Heritage Museum, Kasugai Gardens and the Kelowna Art Gallery. Nearly 20 public art installations can be viewed along the way.
Thompson Okanagan driving routes encompass sightseeing highlights such as heritage sites, parks, orchards, vineyards and more.
Wine enthusiasts will love the tasting opportunities of the Oliver Area Wine Tour, which includes some of the region's most well-know wineries, while the bounty (and history) of farm country can be enjoyed on the Armstrong Nature and History Route, which passes through green pastures and the Historic O'Keefe Ranch.

For the past few days, one of my beautiful four pekin ducks that I have as pets has been walking weird. She can walk sometimes but not normally, it looked like maybe she stepped on something and I didnt see anything. And I checked her bones because I thought maybe she broke something but they seemed fine. I think that maybe its arthritis. I dont know and I need help. So the past few days that she has been walking funny, and the other night I guess the other ducks pecked all the feathers from around one of her eyes, and its bad so Ive been puting an ointment to fight infection. So Ive had them separated since, and I dont know whats wrong with her. |

Reviewed Spinach Gruyere Puff Pastry
Nov 6, 2010 in Food Network Community Toolbox on Food Network
"Easy to make and extremely tasty. I had never tried gruyere before now, and cannot believe what a flavorful cheese I had been missing! Also like that it can be altered to suit tastes (we don't love the exture of mushroom, so we finely chopped them). We plan to try it with a little sauteed artichoke mixed with the spinach next time. Thanks Paula!"
